4.9.6 Expand I/O capacity with the ABB XIO
The RMC supports I/O expansion through ABB’s Extensible IO devices (XIO). The RMC can poll and
write from/to peripherals connected to TFIO Modules installed on the XIO. The RMC’s XIO Interface
application is designed to handle communication transparently with the TFIO modules as if the
modules were directly connected to the RMC.
XIOs, and directly attached TFIO modules, can be co-located with an RMC on the same cabinet or be
in their own enclosure at a distance from the RMC in the same field. RMC-XIO communication is over
Ethernet. For additional details, refer to the XIO user manual and the I/O Interface Application guide.
See Additional information
for links to the documents.
4.10 Configure directly attached TFIO interfaces
To scan and transmit data using the TFIO modules, the RMC TFIO interfaces must be enabled.
Connected TFIO modules are detected only when the interfaces are enabled. This procedure describes
how to enable the TFIO interfaces on the RMC.
Refer to the I/O Interface application guide for additional details to configure and troubleshoot
communication with TFIO modules. See the Additional information for a link to the guide.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The TFIO-A interface is enabled by default. The TFIO-B interface is disabled
by default.
PCCU32 version 7.68 and later support TFIO module hot swap. Additional configuration and
troubleshooting options are not available on earlier versions of PCCU.
NOT
ICE – Equipment damage. When the TFIO interface is disabled, the modules remain
powered. Remove power from the RMC before connecting or disconnecting the TFIO
modules or the TFIO cable. Power down the RMC to avoid damage to the modules.
To verify or enable communication with TFIO modules:
